The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given information about hydrogen and oxygen combining to form two different compounds: hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and water (H₂O). We will use the percentages of hydrogen in these compounds to illustrate the law of multiple proportions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds and Their Percentages**: - The compounds formed are H₂O₂ and H₂O. - The percentage of hydrogen in H₂O₂ is 5.93%. - The percentage of hydrogen in H₂O is 11.2%. 2. **Determine the Mass of Hydrogen in Each Compound**: - For H₂O₂: - The molar mass of H₂O₂ = (2 × 1) + (2 × 16) = 34 g/mol. - Mass of hydrogen in H₂O₂ = (2 g / 34 g) × 100 = 5.93%. - For H₂O: - The molar mass of H₂O = (2 × 1) + (16) = 18 g/mol. - Mass of hydrogen in H₂O = (2 g / 18 g) × 100 = 11.2%. 3. **Calculate the Mass of Oxygen in Each Compound**: - For H₂O₂: - Mass of oxygen = 34 g - 2 g = 32 g. - For H₂O: - Mass of oxygen = 18 g - 2 g = 16 g. 4. **Establish the Ratio of Masses of Oxygen**: - In H₂O₂, the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:32 or simplified to 1:16. - In H₂O, the ratio of hydrogen to oxygen is 2:16 or simplified to 1:8. 5. **Compare the Ratios**: - The mass of hydrogen remains constant (2 g) in both compounds. - The mass of oxygen changes, illustrating a simple whole number ratio (16:8 or 2:1). 6. **Conclusion**: - Since the mass of hydrogen is fixed and the mass of oxygen varies in a simple ratio, this scenario illustrates the law of multiple proportions. ### Final Answer: The data illustrates the **law of multiple proportions**.
